8/12 The Pacific Coast and Beyond (NSW/ACT, Australia)

On my own again, on the road again! But this time, from Brisbane to Melbourne... a whopping 1700 km / 1050 miles! It took me 3 days... and 7.5 tanks of petrol :/ but the campervan was free - a relocation for the rental company!



It's a manual! 
My newest skill... you learn after 20+ hours of forced practice

  
I wish I remembered where this was... its all a bit blurry now :(
